Provides translations and full contexts for the terminology in the Garshana documents and is an indispensable tool for anyone working on texts from third-millennium Mesopotamia.

This volume provides a comprehensive introduction to the contents of ca. 1500 texts associated with the royal estate of the general and physician Shu-Kabta and his wife, the princess Simat-Ishtaran. Extensive cross-referencing and organization by subject allow the reader to access the texts in ways hitherto impossible or time-consuming.
